Fall in love with Crestview Assisted Living Center

Posted: Monday, March 29, 2004

When it comes time to think of finding a place to help the people we love - parents, siblings, dear friends - with the tasks of everyday living, when they can no longer manage by themselves one is faced with an overwhelming, seemingly monumental task. Too frequently there are stories of abuse, mistreatment and neglectful indifference in the care given to individuals placed in the care of a nursing home or similar facility.

The family and friends of the residents of Crestview Assisted Living Center sleep comfortably, secure in the knowledge that their loved ones live in a place that's the "next best thing" to home. Crestview is everything you dream an assisted living facility would be.

Elegantly designed from the stately exterior to the warm, elegant interior, Crestview creates a nurturing, loving, home for its residents. The flexibility of the various care levels gives the people who live at Crestview the choice to determine the level of care they want and need. It puts them in charge of their lives - which is as it should be.

There are several levels from which residents can choose:

Independence: for individuals who need occasional support services

Assisted: for the individual who requires some assistance with the activities of daily living, such as medication management, bathing and grooming assistance.

Assisted Plus: for people needing greater assistance with daily living activities such as incontinence, mobility or orientation and memory.

Comprehensive: for those requiring the highest level of assistance due to cognitive or physical impairments.

Crestview does not treat its residents as children who need the direction of well-meaning, responsible adults. The staff of Crestview fully recognizes, appreciates and respects the fact that they are dealing with adults. Adults who can make their own decisions, have interests and hobbies they wish to continue to pursue, and adult needs and wants. The elderly or infirm are not children in aged bodies and Crestview never treats them as such.

From the motorcycle club meetings, western line-dancing, private and holiday parties, shopping excursions, museum visits to the on-site beauty parlor, exercise and cooking classes and much more Crestview strives to provide stimulating, fun, engaging activities for residents who very much enjoy life.

The amenities at Crestview are varied and numerous, including transportation, laundry, housekeeping, safety features including emergency call systems, handrails, individually controlled heating and cooling and dining, to name a few.

The beautiful architecture, tastefully decorated interior, activities and amenities combine to offer a truly spectacular setting. However, it is the staff of Crestview that truly makes this assisted living center special. It is the group of highly trained, exceptionally qualified individuals who shower compassion, care and lots of love on every single resident of Crestview - transforming it from a facility into a home.
